“Fear is the passion of slaves.” — Patrick Henry

Shall we, who have laid the proud British lion at our feet, now be afraid of his whelps?

I have had many anxieties for our commonwealth, principally occasioned by the depreciation of our money.

Give me liberty or give me death.

I have now disposed of all my property to my family. There is one thing more I wish I could give them, and that is the Christian religion.
